These are All gorgeous! I love the colors, they are so soft and elegant, making them quite neutral and very versatile! This little bag is fabulous! I just have the metallic gold, but I definitely plan on adding more. My " issue" is I want Gold hardware, and fewer color options exist with this choice. I love your selections! Have a wonderful time on your cruise! Safe travels!

Hi Havanese! I really don't know how these colors will look IRL. I am hoping they are cool in a way that makes them great neutrals, even for daytime. The SHW for me helps with this, as I am pretty casual and wear lots of knit greys, blacks, creams, etc. (think Vince, James Perse, Rag & Bone). Sometimes white is a hit or miss. I am hoping this one looks great when it arrives.

You know for me what is difficult sometimes. I am so codependent, that sometimes I keep things that I am not in love with because I feel an SA gets annoyed if they are doing all of this work to send me things. I buy a lot, don't get me wrong, but things have to be shipped to me because I am far from boutiques. How do you guys deal with this? I am hoping I love all 4, but I am already dreading the conversation if I only love, say, 2, and have to send 2 back. This would probably be a good thread on its own.

Hi Tracey,
I have the same situation regarding a Dior boutique anywhere near where I live. I found an amazing SA that I shop with exclusively and shes been an invaluable resource. She is patient, sends me lots of pics of bags and mpdeling shots. I sent her pics of my closet and she suggests which colors will likely appeal to me. She really gets my tastes. I think we have similar style as I wear Vince and Rag and Bone too. I do like tailored separates, dark denim, cashmere and Equipment blouses, cool jackets and Blazers. I love to have fun with bags and shoes.

My SA knows shopping for a bag long distance isn't ideal, and if I return something she understands. Honestly, I would not worry about that. She knows I'm a " real" client, and if I return something because it doesn't suit me, I'll be buying something else. She truly wants me to love the bag!

I hope you love all of your new Promenade pouches, but if you don't, definitely return the ones you don't! I'm at a point where I want to absolutely love all of my bags!

Thank you so much for the feedback, and great advice. I have a couple of Chanel SA's that are completely like that. They don't WANT me to keep things I don't love! I am going to PM you (ask about your SA) so I don't keep hijacking this happy Diorama thread :)

I see what you mean by it being caused by the leather being softer on the sides. One side is fine when the bag is empty, but the other side has "bubbles" -- the leather surface has been pressed out of shape, probably due to storage, and it just pops back out even if I press it in. I can live with it, good to know that it's due to the nature of the leather and not because of a defect!

Thanks guys!

Yes, I live with mine too, because it is not that bad and I really would prefer a little more give in my bags anyway, and to be honest I thought they were all like that. Beautiful bags to own the Dioramas - I would love one in every colour if I could afford it.
